"Satire is meant to ridicule power. If you are laughing at people who are hurting, it is not satire, it is bullying." - Terry Pratchett
I used to work in a hospital, helping people file for disability and/or Medicaid.
My husband works for the Social Security Administration.
I currently work as a home health aide to a disabled patient receiving benefits.
And I am *so sick & tired* of people who know *nothing* about these things being so goddamn sure that everybody else is "scamming the system". YOU KNOW NOTHING WHINY SNOW.
Ya know how some people are re: Target? They go in for one thing, get casino syndrome, & leave hours later with $200 worth of stuff?
Same, but with drug stores. Go to Walgreens to get body wash, fast forward one hour & $50, I stagger out with bags of hair product & nail polish & every BandAid in christendom.
